Day Twenty-Two // The [Almost] Perfect Maxi

Do you ever have those days where you just don't feel like smiling? Apparently I do, hence the serious face in all of these pictures! My apologies.

Maxi dresses and skirts are a definite staple in my wardrobe, because they are in season all year long. They are great for summer and winter, plus they are so dang comfortable, so I never feel bad about a maxi dress purchase. I love this dress for summer, though I do need to find another alternative to making it modest. The long sleeves in Arizona thing is just not doing it for me, and I'm not a huge fan of wearing short sleeves under tank tops. [Call me crazy, I know...] Maybe it will just act as a beach cover up from now on? Suggestions, please!

Oh and you know how I'm completely obsessed with neon, right? [How could you forget...] Well I have a real treat for you all today: the neon stylings of Lana and Abigail! [Two of the cuties that I nanny.]

^[Aren't you just dying over their matching shorts?]^

[I swear that I did not tell her to pose like that.]

Anyway, this just makes me love neon even more, if that's even possible. What are some of the trends that you just can not get over lately?

Maybe you could take in the straps at the top of the shoulder to shorten them and decrease the amount of chest/underarm area that is showing! Otherwise, try layering with cardigans or button downs over the dress.
